2. West Coast: Product, product, product Toly and Nikita Bier on going viral on the app store. Builders from Solana Mobile, Phantom, Hivemapper, MetaDAO, Timedotfun, and more hit the stage.
From Venmo in the age of crypto with Sam Lessin to tokenized whiskey, fan experiences, and open social graphs — the West Coast is all about emerging crypto products with a relentless focus on mobile experiences.
3. A U.S. Policy track on day 2 Senators Gillibrand, Scott, and Hagerty. Rep. French Hill. Bo Hines with Kyle Samani. Kristin Smith. The Solana Policy Institute has helped curate a stacked lineup on regulation, innovation, and what's next on Capitol Hill.
Two days. Two stages. 20+ product booths. One goal: bring the best in tech, finance, and policy together to push the crypto industry forward in America.
